Mayors for Meals Serves it Hot

Friday, 23 March 2012 07:35

Some local Mayors were out doing their good deeds for the week. Pat Sobeski and Don McKay participated in the "Meals on Wheels" program, in delivering some food to local seniors. The "Mayors for Meals" initiative takes place each March to raise awareness for the meals on wheels program. The program is delivered through the VON of Oxford County that serves up 22-thousand meals a year to local seniors. It allows them to stay in their homes longer, which will be crucial, says the VON, as Canadian baby boomers enter their senior years.
